Haha niceone. Love that picture asleep with the cat. Proves they are just as much of a pet as an egg layer

Good thought. The Orpingtons are only down the road from me so will go have a cuddle next week. I am sure the kids would enjoy the flufflyness

Fair enough didnt have a hold. they are only down the road from me so will go have another look next week. They were very good looking birds to be honest

Thats what i was thinking really. It would be nice to give a few of the poor lil things a good home for a bit. Maybe a little bit soppy but you got to feel for them. Will have a look online and see what i can find. Have you had much experience with them then?

Yuppies

Orpingtons were where i started my journey to be honest. I saw a few Buff Orpingtons and they were huge lol kinda stopped looking at them after that...... Has anyone had any experience with ex battery hens? I understand they may not be as easy going as others but i figured they may appreciate it?

Wondering

Niceone thanks for that, Just had a quick read and sounds good. Will have another read later. I read quite a bit about training them with treats which seems logical, so really the younger they are the better it will be in the long run

Vengeance

What sort of age should i be looking for. Is there any benefit from getting chicks and raising them or is it just as good getting some that are a bit older?????
